I invention frelates' to plows,- and has 1 excessive, wear.

7 1 mid construction hereinafterfmore fully de- 'ing, and claimed.

@looking at the landside of of the present repair point'before being bent [more particular reference to an improved repair point for plow shares;

The object of the invention to-provide aaver'y simple and eflicient plow point which may be readilyapplied to a plow share which has become practically useless from The invention consists of certain details scribed, shown in the accompanying draw- .In the drawing: I

Figure 1 is a side elevational View looking at the turning side 'of'a plow share having my improved repair point applied thereto.

Figure 2 is a View similar to Figure 1,

the 'p'low'share; Figure '3 is an enlarged transversesection on line 3-3 of Figurelyand V Figure 4 is an enlarged perspective View and applied to the plow share.

.Referring in detailto' the drawing, 5 indicates a plow share with the point thereof worn away so as to shorten and gradually the plow practically useless.

reduce the thickness of the turning portion as at 6 and to shorten and produce an upward depression in the lower edge of the landside portion as at*7,thereby rendering My improved repair point comprisesa wedge-shaped metallic body 8,; gradually tapered narrower and increased in thickness 1n one dlrection, and provided at the narrower and thicker end thereof with a reduced extension 9 formed with an "upwardly bulged I intermediate portion 10 designed to engage and fitin the depression 7 of the landside portion of "the plow share. The extension 9 is foo-extensive with the landside edge portionof the body 8, the reduction of the extensionbeing entirely at the side thereof re- .J- mote'froin the landside edge of the same, and the edge portion of said extension at such side and immediately adjacent the body 8 v eing of inwardly curved form as at 11. The

outergend portion 12 of the extension 9' is 0v narrow. inner portion of the said extension gradually reduced in thickness,fwhile the narrower and thicker end with a reduced adJatentitheibody 8 is formed 'in its upper face" witha wide and shallowtransverse grooveso as to provide a septum 18 of a thicknessinaterially'less than that of the ad acent portions of the body 8 and extensionS), said body when applying the repair point to the Q worn plow share. After the extension 9 has been properly-turned back, the worn point of the shareis inserted between the body 8 and the extension 9, whereupon the repair a point is welded in place to the turning and landsideportions of the share. The form of the repairpoint is such that a proper fit is ad without the use of separate inserts of metal, and welding is required at only two places. a

From the above description it will be seen thatI have provided a plow point by means of which a worn plow share may be readily and effectively repaired.

vVhat I claim as new is:

1. A repair plow point wedge-shaped metallic body gradually tapered narrower and increased in thickness in one direction and provided at the comprising a extension, said extension being coextensive with the landside edge portion of the body and formed with an upwardly bulged intermediate portion designed to fit in an upward depression worn in the lower edge of the landside portion of a plow share at the point of the latter.

2. A repair plow point comprising a wedge-shaped metallic body gradually tapered narrower and increased 'in thickness in one direction and provided at the narrower and thicker end with a reduced extension, said extension being co-extensive with the landside edge portion of thebody and formed with an upwardly bulged intermediate portion designed to fit in an upward depression worn in the lower edge of the landside portion of aplow share at the point of the latter, the reduction of the extension being entirely at the side thereof remote from the landside edge of the salneandthe edge portion'of said extenslon at such side being of inwardly I curved form.

A repair "plont j'gpoint conlprising a Wedge-shaped metallic body, gradually tapered; v V in onedi rection and provided atthenarrowen narrower; and increased in thickness s and thicker end with a reduced extension,

with an upwardly ibu'lged intermediate sportion designed to lower edge of the landsidefporpoint of the latangles to the la ndside edges of the the extension to form aline of flexing on said 'extenslon being co extensive with the landside edge portion of the body and formed 1'" v fit in an up'warddepression Worn 1n the face with a ide sha w" transverse e a septum of a thickness saidoenat right ody and tions of the body and the extension, tral portion of the septum extendini which the extension be turned biLCk'Wif/h respect to the body.

In testimony-whereof I a-ffix my signature. Q v s AUGUST WARHOL OSKI.
